For the fandom asks, 9, 16, and 17 for Control?
9. a ship that isn't your OTP but that you enjoy
It's about as rare as they come but I do like Northmoor/Ash for the Trench/Darling parallels. However they are by far much more enemies to lovers to ??. It's even more "read between the lines" than any other pairing I enjoy for Control, but I think it's a cool one and I've tried to include sprinklings of it in my fics. I think Northmoor would hate it but he'd be unable to resist that nepo-baby.
It's not something I'd be opposed to writing more explicitly but it's also not the first thing on the docket to work on.
16. a tiny detail in canon that you want more people to appreciate
How important America Overnight is to the Bureau's functioning. It's such a cool element of the universe that I hadn't really appreciated until Zath started making America Overnight episodes. It's so important for the Bureau to have a landline for people to call in their stories, whether some of them are insane and not real whereas others are genuine AWEs spiraling out of control. It also has Coast to Coast AM with Art Bell vibes, and I've been a casual fan of that for awhile.
17. the thing in canon that everyone loves and that you also love
The lore documents and the endless potential of Altered Items and Objects of Power. It's one of the most fascinating things to think about, especially how they differ yet share similarities to SCP.
